The incredible adventures of Hinty the snail

[thalbergmad]

Hello everyone, I have a pet snail and his name is Hinty. We are going to have some incredible adventures.

Hinty, can you please get off my keyboard as I want to log onto Pianostreets.

Thal

[littletune]

Thal that is sooo cool!!!  Please say hi to your pet snail Hinty for me    He is cute! 

[thalbergmad]

Hinty says hi back Littletune.

Tomorrow he is coming to work with me. I wonder what he will get up to??

Thal

[littletune]

  Thanks!  maybe you could write a book about him   

[thalbergmad]

Yeh, that is possible.

Could be a bestseller.

Thal

[Bob]

Haha.

[littletune]

So Thal... did Hinty do anything funny yet?   

[thalbergmad]

Hinty is not very happy as i took him to work today, but forgot my camera.

I have promised to take him for a drive tomorrow.

Luv

Thal & Hinty

[goldentone]

Hinty plays the Black Key Etude.

Thal

Is that Hinty the Owl too?

So far the real Hinty has yet to divulge his thoughts on his snaildom. . .

[thalbergmad]

I have yet to think of a name for the owl.

Littletune can choose.

Thal

[littletune]

Thank you Thal!      Is the owl girl or a boy?

Can I name the metronome?

[thalbergmad]

Please do Sir.

Thal

[littletune]

[thalbergmad]

Clever, I cannot find out how to spray onto a wall.

Can you let me into the secret?

Thal

[Bob]

I see Hinty the Snail managed to tie a scarf.  That's pretty incredible.  He must have done that with his foot.

[thalbergmad]

I had to do that for him Bob.

Tomorrow he comes to work with me.

Thal

[littletune]

Clever, I cannot find out how to spray onto a wall.

Can you let me into the secret?

Thal

Sure Thal  You have to look there where it says "advanced settings (optional)" below those other things. And then where it says background you can choose different colours of bricks or something else.   

[Bob]

I found a page.

What a cute thread this is!!!   

[thalbergmad]

What a cute thread this is!!!   

I know this is supposed to be a piano forum, but for me, littletune has brightened up the place.

All of a sudden i feel 12 again and it is rather pleasant.

Thal

[thalbergmad]

Time to go to work Hinty.

Perhaps I had better drive.

Thal

Thal

That's cool Thal!  Have you tried writing on the wall yet? 
Does Hinty wear a seat belt in the car? Or maybe he should have a special snail car sit     

[thalbergmad]

Because he has a shell, under English law he does not have to wear a seatbelt

Will try the wall tomorrow.

Got to do some scanning tonight.

Luv

Thal

[thalbergmad]

Dougs shows hinty how to use the printer.

Thal

[littletune]

That is very nice of Dougs!  Hinty looks happy 
Is that Dougs on your mouse pad?

Oh Hinty doesn't have to wear seatbelt because it's like he wears a helmet right?   

[thalbergmad]

Yeh, Dougs has got a Dougs mouse mat

Anthem to HINTY THE SNAIL   (to the tune of "God Save the Queen")

"Hinty's the snail for me!
Slimey in any key,
Of thee I sing!

"Best pal I ever had!
Dear chum of thalbergmad!
Mighty molusc with a bright orange shell!
May you reign supreme!"

[thalbergmad]

I say Sir, that is excellent.

Snorabji could not have done better.

Thal

[littletune]

[thalbergmad]

He has been working very hard with Dougs & Alexander Meerkat.

I am off on holiday next week and I have promised to take him with me.

Thal

[Bob]

Looks like Hinty the Snail has moved a few inches over the past few days.  I think he's going for the coffee.

[thalbergmad]

Excellent observation bob.

Think it might be cold by the time he reaches it.

Thal

[Bob]

That's what I was thinking.  Although... half of it's gone and he has a wired look in his eyes.

[birba]

Thal

Couldn't agree with you more there, thal!

[birba]

By the way, where on earth did you find Hinty?  Did you make him?  He is SO cute!

[lostinidlewonder]

Why is he called Hinty? Can we have a.... hint? And why are you still playing with stuffed toys?

[birba]

Why? Doesn't everyone?  If I could, I would take a picture of my "Gilberto" who keeps me company in my bed ( ) and watches over me while I practise and gives me great advice.  But I'm not computer savvy.  Anyway, he's a 36-year-old teddy bear.  And proud of it.

[littletune]

Lostinidlewonder you don't have any toys??  You really should!  Oh and you really don't know why the snail is called Hinty? Or you're just kidding?  u need a hint-on that? 

Birba you really can't take a picture of your Gilberto?  But I wanna see him! Don't you have a digital camera? Maybe you could draw him then That's really cool that a teddy bear is so much older than me      well I do have some very old toys too from my mum.... I think maybe I should take pictures of ALL my toys and post them all  that would be a very long thread!!!  Well please say hi to Gilberto
I wanna know too where Thal got Hinty, I don't have any toy snails 
You guys are so cool!       
I wonder if Alistair has any toys....   
Oh Thal that's cool that you'll take Hinty on holiday.... and the others will stay at home? That Alexander is cool too
